NATIONAL MALL.   Among the most-visited sites in Washington, this museum powerfully depicts one of the darkest times in modern history. Four floors of exhibits, survivors' testimonies, video displays and actual film footage document the history of the Holocaust. Visitors can spend two to three hours in the self-guided permanent exhibition, "The Holocaust." The Museum also offers a number of other exhibitions and displays, including the family-friendly "Remember the Children: Daniel's Story" and the high-tech Wexner Learning Center. Timed passes are required for "The Holocaust" and can be obtained for free at the museum on the day of your visit or by calling ahead. Recommended for ages 11 and up. METRO: Smithsonian   (© 10Best)

If you haven't been to any other, please visit this Holocaust Museum
Though I would not rate it as highly as I would Yad V'Shem in Jerusalem, Israel, this museum is still powerful and important for ALL people to visit. To understand how an entire nation of people can succumb to such barbarism and commit such atrocities... Do not miss this.
